"Don't let go"

3-a hoodie and a princess

Jughead's Point Of View-

I lay awake for hours that night watching Betty sleep. She looked so peaceful and she deserved it after the hell shes been through. My dad told me all about her dad and why he's in prison. And now her mom is gone. I remember how it felt when my mom left and that was bad enough, I can't imagine what it feels like knowing she will never come back.

Every so often Betty would make a noise like a sigh, or a soft "no" as if she was dreaming. As soon as I closed my eyes there was a thud on the floor next to me. It was Betty's hoodie. When I looked back up to her I could see her bareback, I quickly looked away in case she turned around and saw what she probably didn't want anyone to see.

I pressed my head into the pillow, begging for sleep to take over me, but the most beautiful girl in Riverdale is shirtless and bra less in my bed. My brain had to stop, like it wasn't okay how much this was affecting me.

She was a bubble gum princess, friends with the quarterback and the richest Riverdale gals, I on the other hand am a teenage gang leader, in what alternate universe would that even happen.

So I closed my eyes and counted down from a thousand and at around 965 Betty said something in her sleep. It was soft and breathy.

"Juggie" she said and my eyes lit up and I flew off the mattress and into the kitchen. She's dreaming about me. I tried to calm myself down but I couldn't.

I sat on the couch and turned on the tv and there was a news channel on, reporting that the weather is supposed to be stormy really bad for the next two weeks, if it gets bad enough no school.

The news channel bored me enough to calm down and go back into my room, I walked in trying not to wake her up. I looked over to her, still asleep, one arm was raised over her head and she was leaning her head to the side, the other hand resting on her stomach. The sheets were woven into her just right. Her boobs were covered so I didn't feel as guilty staring at her, her belly was showing and her thigh, and her leg stuck out of the covers and then another sigh.

I took that as a punishment, for being such an ass. Why would you give a half naked blonde goddess to a teen age boy it's torture, I stuffed my bead back down on my pillow and finally sleep came, slowly then all at once.

Of course my sleep was short lived when I heard the rain batter against the tin can. When I checked the time it was 9:45am, only elderly ladies and the cockerels are awake at this time. I groaned and then tried to get to sleep.

"Juggie?" I heard and looked up to see Betty in the corner of the bed, pushed against the wall with the sheets covering her.

"Could you pass me that hoodie" she smiled, she looked a little bit embarrassed.

"Nah" I smiled and she gave me a smirk and rolled her eyes.

"Please Jughead I'm practically naked" she whined and oh my god I nearly died.

"Same" I said pointing down to my bare torso.

"You haven't got boobs ass hat, please pass me my hoodie" she laughed and I was just smirking at her.

I lifted it up and threw it to her.

"Don't worry princess, I didn't see your peaches" I said with a chuckle and I watched her turn around and throw her hoodie over her head and pull it down, the getting out of bed she walked over to the dresser.

She bent down and checked her eyes and face brushing her hair down with her fingers. From where I was laying on the mattress on the floor, it was a very, very good view.

"Is there something you do for fun around here?" She asked me and turning to look at me, I just smirked.

"Not in the rain, no, but maybe I'll take you some place when the storm passes, we might be in for a while, invite your boyfriend or friends or whatever over, my dad won't be back any time soon" that was smooth, now I get to see if she's got a boyfriend and I totally just disguised it.

"Oh, I don't have a boyfriend, and my only friends are Ronnie and Cheryl and they wouldn't come up here, not even for me" she sighed, walking into the kitchen.

"Looks like it's just me and you then." I said cheerfully putting coffee on and offering her some toast.

"Not to be that bitch, but we know nothing about each other, how fun is this going to be" Betty laughed.

"Well, I'll leave you to read or study or do whatever you do in that pink world you live in" I chuckled.

"You know, you really have been an ass ever since I met you" she laughed along with me.

"Well, this is the only way I know how to be, I just don't care" I said sipping out of my coffee cup with my pinkie out stretched.

"Teach me" she whispered seriously.

"Wouldn't want to corrupt Riverdales best and brightest" I sang in my usual sarcastic tone.

"What if riverdales best and brightest wanted to be corrupted" she said back leaning against the wall on her chair.

"The riverdales worst and dimmest would happily comply to the needs of riverdales best and brightest" and with that we clinked coffee cups in agreement.

"Also, we'll be going to school together" I said taking another sip of my coffee.

"Uh-huh" she said.

"Well it's not like preppy like Riverdale high, there will be bitches who will punch you for looking at them, anyone bothers you tell them you know me okay?" I said, south side high is no place for a girl like Betty.

"Why are you the Regina George of south side high" she scoffed.

"Something like that" I laughed.

"Wait how am I going to get to school?" She gasped.

"I'll give you a ride" I smirked.

"Do you have a car?" She asked me wiping the crumbs off of her hoodie.

"Something like that" I grinned again.
